A new Chick-fil-A restaurant will be opening in Monmouth County next month.

The new restaurant will be located at 2819 Route 35 in Hazlet. It will open on April 1.

The restaurant will be employing about 100 full-time and part-time employees, according to officials.

The Chick-fil-A will currently only operate as a drive-thru because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The company also announced that in place of the traditional Chick-fil-A First 100 Grand Opening celebration, the Hazlet location will be surprising 100 local heroes making an impact in Monmouth County with free meals for a year.

Chick-fil-A will also donate $25,000 to Feeding America, according to the company.
